Summary:
ZIP code 53073 in Plymouth, Wisconsin is home to three public elementary schools — Parkview Elementary, Horizon Elementary, and Fairview Elementary — all serving grades PK–4 and all part of the Plymouth Joint School District, which ranks 135th of 432 districts in Wisconsin (69th percentile, 3 stars). Enrollments are similar: Parkview 252, Horizon 245, and Fairview 213.
Fairview has the strongest and steadiest results, with the best current rank (233rd of 1,039, 78th percentile, 4 stars) and the highest average proficiency of the three in both reported years (69.74 in 2025–26 and 72.26 in 2024–25), including 4th-grade math and social studies at 80.95. Parkview holds the highest single-year peak — 35th of 1,061 (97th percentile, 5 stars) in 2023–24 — plus standout results such as 3rd-grade math at 87.18 in 2025–26, while spending the least per student ($13,653). Horizon trails overall but improved the most: its average proficiency rose from 48.52 to 58.13 and its rank moved from the 33rd to the 53rd percentile.
All three schools have chronic absenteeism below the district (14.6%) and state (17.3%) rates: Parkview 6.5%, Fairview 8.8%, Horizon 9.5%. Spending and class size don't line up neatly with results — Fairview has the highest free/reduced lunch rate (37.56%), the highest per-student spending ($16,363), and the largest student-teacher ratio (14.2), yet the best test averages. Ranks also swing year to year; with small grade-level cohorts, a single subject or year shouldn't tell the whole story at any of these schools.
